Introduction The present edition of the ISSN Manual expands and completes the June 2012 release. It incorporates additional instructions and examples, and includes updates to the Annexes. Most of the additions result from:
• The need for more precise ISSN cataloguing instructions, in particular for identifying and describing online resources which often take various and complex forms;
• The need for clear instructions about the update of ISSN metadata elements (which elements to revise, how, and when);
• The harmonization discussions held with the RDA JSC1 and the ISBD Review Group2. These additional instructions and examples complement the incorporation of new metadata elements into the ISSN profile (i.e., the list of metadata elements, mandatory or optional, supplied in ISSN records) in MARC 21 and UNIMARC. Some of these elements reflect changes in MARC formats over the past two years, while others were necessary for providing more complete and accurate descriptions of online resources, in particular online resources with multiple manifestations. The 2014 edition was prepared by the ISSN Review Group. Successive draft versions were circulated throughout the ISSN Network between 2013 and 2014, and very useful comments and suggestions were received.

0. GENERAL ISSN ASSIGNMENT POLICIES The International Standard Serial Number (ISSN) was developed in the early 1970’s by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in order to meet the need for a brief, unique and unambiguous identification code for serial publications. Sole responsibility for controlling the assignment of ISSN was allocated by the resulting standard, ISO 3297, to the ISDS3 International Centre - since 1993 known as the International Centre of the ISSN Network. The ISSN Network consists of the International Centre and National Centres established in those countries which have acceded to the Statutes of the ISSN Network. The successful operation of the ISSN Network depends on the uniform application of common rules and standards for the registration of continuing resources and for the preparation of ISSN records for integration into the ISSN Register. In developing these rules, care has been taken to ensure so far as possible compatibility and harmonization with international standards such as the International Standard Bibliographic Description (ISBD, Consolidated edition) and the practices of other International systems such as the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR, 2nd edition) and RDA: Resource Description and Access.
0.1 Definitions For the purpose of the ISSN Network, the following definitions of bibliographic resource, continuing resource, serial, ongoing integrating resource, ISSN, ISSN-L and key title apply: Bibliographic resource: An expression or manifestation of a work or an item that forms the basis for bibliographic description. A bibliographic resource may be in any medium or combination of media and may be tangible or intangible. Continuing resource: A publication, in any medium, that is issued over time with no predetermined conclusion and made available to the public. Editorial note 1: Such a publication is usually issued in successive or integrating issues which generally have numerical and/or chronological designation Editorial note 2: Continuing resources include serials such as newspapers, periodicals, journals, magazines, etc., and ongoing integrating resources such as loose-leaf publications that are continually updated and Web sites that are continually updated. Serial: A continuing resource issued in a succession of discrete issues or parts, usually bearing numbering, that has no predetermined conclusion. e.g.: Journals, magazines, electronic journals, ongoing directories, annual reports, newspapers, monographic series, and also those journals, magazines and newsletters of limited duration that otherwise bear all the characteristics of serials (e.g., newsletter of an event).
Ongoing integrating resource: A continuing resource that is added to or changed by means of updates that do not remain discrete and are integrated into the whole. Ongoing integrating resources have no predetermined conclusion.
3 ISDS : International Serial Data System
- - 14 - -
e.g.: Databases, Web sites and loose-leafs that are updated over time with no predetermined conclusion.
ISSN (International Standard Serial Number): An eight digit number, including a check digit and preceded by the alphabetic prefix ISSN, assigned to a continuing resource by the ISSN Network.
ISSN-L (Linking ISSN): ISSN designated by the ISSN Network to enable collocation or linking among the different medium versions of a continuing resource. Key title: The unique name for a continuing resource, established by the ISSN Network and inseparably linked with its ISSN. Editorial note: The key title can be the same as the title of the resource; or, in order to achieve uniqueness, it can be constructed by the addition of identifying and/or qualifying elements such as name of issuing body, place of publication, edition statement, etc. The use of these definitions is associated with the application of the following model which was developed as part of the revision of AACR2, Chapter 12.

The above definitions and other definitions are listed in Annex 1: Glossary.
0.2 Scope of ISSN Each ISSN is a unique identifier for a specific continuing resource in a defined medium. Continuing resources are bibliographic resources issued over time with no predetermined conclusion, they include serials and ongoing integrating resources. All continuing resources, whether past, present, or to be produced in the foreseeable future, whatever the medium of production, are eligible for ISSN assignment.
- - 15 - -
Also eligible for ISSN assignment are those bibliographic resources issued in successive issues or parts which bear numbering and that also bear other characteristics of a serial (e.g. frequency in the title), but whose duration is limited (e.g. the newsletter of an event)4. Eligibility does not necessarily mean ISSN assignment in practice. Section 0.3 below provides criteria for determining whether or not a continuing resource shall be ISSN assigned in accordance with the current policy of the ISSN Network.
0.3 Criteria for ISSN assignment
0.3.1 Serials Serials are continuing resources issued in a succession of discrete issues or parts, usually bearing numbering, that have no predetermined conclusion. ISSN are assigned to the entire population of serials. However, National Centres can decide to exclude ephemeral serials or serials of purely local interest from systematic ISSN assignment (see Section 0.7).
0.3.2 Ongoing integrating resources Ongoing integrating resources are resources that are updated over time and with no predetermined conclusion, for which the updates are integrated into the resources and do not remain discrete. ISSN are assigned to ongoing integrating resources which fulfill all the inclusion and exclusion criteria listed hereafter. National Centres can decide to exclude ephemeral ongoing integrating resources or ongoing integrating resources of purely local interest from systematic ISSN assignment (see Section 0.7). Meeting only one of the criteria is not sufficient for ISSN assignment. These criteria apply to all the categories of ongoing integrating resources, whether print or electronic: databases, websites, wikis, print loose-leaf services, etc. Although blogs are considered to be serials, these same criteria should be applied to blogs. Editorial note: If a part of an ongoing integrating resource (part of website, for instance) is eligible for ISSN assignment, e.g., a newsletter that is part of the website is assigned an ISSN, this does not mean necessarily that the whole website is eligible for ISSN assignment.
0.3.2.1 Inclusion criteria 1. There is editorial content (i.e., the resource mostly consists of written, textual content, and there is evidence of editorial or journalistic treatment); 2. There is identified editorial responsibility (i.e., a statement indicating the name of the publisher / producer, and at least the country of publication). Generally, editorial responsibility will consist of more than one individual; 3. There is a consistent title (i.e., a title which remains consistent when the resource is updated) and the title is prominently visible on the resource;
4 Monographs, sound and video recordings, printed music publications, audio-visual works and musical works have their own
numbering systems and are not specifically mentioned in this Manual. Such types of resources may carry an ISSN in addition to their own standard numbers when they are part of a continuing resource.
- - 16 - -
4. There is a valid URL (i.e., a URL leading to the actual resource); 5. The resource has subject-related content or has identified subject-related audience.
0.3.2.2 Exclusion criteria 1. Personal resources (personal web sites and web pages, online diaries); 2. Resources focusing on a company, a product, an institution or organization (advertising and promotional web sites, commercial web sites, product information web sites, company and institutional web sites, web sites of organizations); 3. Web sites consisting only of links; 4. Ephemeral resources (i.e., resources known to be ephemeral).
0.4 Relationship between an ISSN, an ISSN-L, a key title and a continuing resource
Only one ISSN is assigned to a continuing resource in a defined medium. This ISSN is permanently linked to the key title, a standardized form of title derived from information appearing on the continuing resource. A key title is unique to a particular continuing resource. Titles which would otherwise not be unique are made unique by the addition of qualifying elements. In cases where the title changes sufficiently to warrant creating a new key title, a new ISSN is assigned. In cases where the medium of the continuing resource changes, a new ISSN and a new key title are assigned as well (see Section 2.3). ISSN-L, the linking ISSN, provides for collocation or linking among the different medium versions of the same continuing resource. The same ISSN-L is associated with one or more ISSN that have been assigned to a continuing resource issued in different media (see Section 3).
0.5 Allocation and use of blocks of ISSN The International Centre is responsible for the allocation of blocks of ISSN to National Centres. Each Centre receives limited blocks of numbers. In using blocks of ISSN, National Centres adhere to the following procedures: 1. Report all ISSN assigned by their centre to the ISSN Register; 2. Use ISSN within their assigned block consecutively and use up one block completely before starting
another block; 3. Ensure that ISSN assignments made in advance of publication or production of a continuing resource
are recorded in the ISSN Register by determining if publication or production of the resource has occurred and creating the appropriate ISSN records (or updating existing Work records5).
5 Work records are provisional records created for pre-publication ISSN assignments (see Section 0.7.2).
- - 17 - -
0.6 ISSN assignment and responsibility issues
0.6.1 The place of publication as a criterion for determining the National Centre responsible for ISSN assignment
Each National Centre has sole responsibility for assigning ISSN to the continuing resources published in its country with the exception of resources issued by multinational publishers, resources published by international organizations and, in some cases, digital reproductions of ceased print serials (see Sections 0.6.2, 0.6.3 and 0.6.4). The country of publication is determined by the first or most typographically prominent, or only, named place given on the resource. For online resources, determining the country of publication is based on the place of the publisher of the resource not on the place of the distributor or server. If the place and the country of publication are not given on the resource, information found in an external source can be used. The International Centre assigns ISSN to continuing resources published in countries where no National Centre exists.
0.6.2 Assignment of ISSN to continuing resources issued by multinational publishers
Because some publishers have offices in more than one country, the actual country of publication of a continuing resource may be difficult to determine, or may vary. In order to avoid double assignments, one National Centre may assume responsibility for particular imprints or publishers irrespective of the place of publication. Such an arrangement can only be made with the agreement of the International Centre and the appropriate National Centre. The list of the agreements between ISSN Centres is published as Annex 5: List of the agreements for the ISSN assignments to continuing resources issued by multinational publishers.
0.6.3 Assignment of ISSN to continuing resources published by international organizations
The International Centre assigns ISSN to continuing resources published by those international organizations that are listed in the Yearbook of International Organizations, types A to F, including those organizations which are permanently established in one country, those which publish only within one country, and those which have no fixed place of publication. Continuing resources published by national commissions of international organizations and by representative offices of national administrations or services abroad (embassies, military or economic representative offices) are, however, assigned ISSN by the National Centre of the country of publication except in cases when a specialized centre exists. If the international organization is not listed in the Yearbook of International Organizations, the National Centre of the country where the organization is located is responsible for the ISSN assignment. Editorial note: if the international organization is responsible for the intellectual content but does not publish the resource, this instruction is not relevant. In this case, only the location of the publisher is taken into account for determining the National Centre responsible for the ISSN assignment.
- - 18 - -
e.g. Current sociology (Print) = ISSN 0011-3921
UNESCO and the International Sociological Association are responsible for the intellectual content but the journal is published by Sage. Consequently, this publication is not under the responsibility of the ISSN International Centre but under the responsibility of the ISSN Centre of the United Kingdom.
0.6.4 Assignment of ISSN to digital reproductions of ceased print serials As a general policy, National Centres should assign an ISSN to both the digital reproductions and to the original print versions when the latter are not already identified. Digital reproduction of a ceased print serial when the content is owned by a current publisher
If the content of a digitized version of a dead print serial is owned by a current publisher, the ISSN assignment should be made by the National Centre responsible for ISSN assignment to the resources of that publisher. This rule applies also:
• when the digitized version is provided by an institution such as a library or an archives provider, different from the current publisher that owns the content;
• when the digitized version is provided in parallel by a current publisher that owns the content and by an institution such as a library or an archives provider.
Digital reproduction of a ceased print serial when the content is not owned by a current publisher
If no current publisher owns the content, or if this determination cannot be made, the National Centre responsible for ISSN assignment is determined according to the location of the institution that is responsible for the digitized version (library or archives provider for instance) and not according to the location of the publisher of the original print version6. If digitized versions of a ceased print serial whose content is not owned by a current publisher are provided by several institutions located in distinct countries (libraries or archives providers for instance), the National Centre responsible for ISSN assignment is the Centre which has been first requested to do so by a library or an archives provider located in its country. The assigning Centre should liaise with other Centres that may have an interest in the resource (those Centres which have already assigned ISSN to other medium versions, in particular to the print version) to avoid the possibility of double assignments occurring. If the original print version of the dead serial has not been already identified, the assigning Centre can also ask permission to assign ISSN to both the print and the digitized versions at the same time from the National Centre that would normally be responsible for the print version.
6 See Section 20 and Annex 10
- - 19 - -
0.6.5 Publications whose different medium versions are under the responsibility of different National Centres
National Centres that want to assign an ISSN to a medium version of a continuing resource that has another medium version to which an ISSN has already been assigned by another National Centre shall contact that Centre, copying the International Centre, in order to: 1. Verify that the National Centre responsible for the medium version to which an ISSN has already
been assigned agrees to a different National Centre having responsibility for the new medium version;
2. Request this National Centre to create the appropriate linking entry (776 in MARC 21, 452 in
UNIMARC) in its bibliographic record.
0.6.6 Transfer of responsibility for ISSN records When a continuing resource moves from one country to another, the ISSN record or the responsibility for a provisional ISSN assignment established by one National Centre has to be transferred to another Centre. Also, it sometimes happens that a provisional ISSN assignment is made by one Centre but the resource turns out to be published in another country. In all of these situations, transfer of responsibility for an ISSN assignment is necessary. In some cases the transfer is initiated by the country to which the resource has moved or which turns out to be responsible for a resource after publication. In all cases, the ISSN Centres involved shall follow, step by step, the procedure below: 1. The two National Centres involved reach an agreement regarding the transfer of responsibility; 2. The National Centres inform the International Centre, which changes the ISSN Centre code of
the bibliographic record in the ISSN Register; 3. The new National Centre responsible for the publication creates and/or updates the record to
reflect the changes (including the new country and new centre codes) and sends it to the International Centre in the usual manner7.
7 This last step is somewhat different for National Centres which use the cataloguing client of the Information system of the International Centre since they can create or update the record directly in the ISSN Register.
- - 20 - -
0.7 ISSN registration As their first priority National Centres systematically register new and current continuing resources (including continuing resources which have changed their titles). National Centres also register continuing resources in response to requests from users. Systematic retrospective registration is not required for ISSN Network purposes. National Centres may define their own policies in accordance with national requirements.
0.7.1 Comprehensive registration v.s. selective registration The overall aim of the ISSN Network is to provide identification and bibliographic control of the world’s continuing resources population. For this reason, comprehensive registration, i.e., complete coverage of a country’s continuing resources, is a fundamental goal. It is recognized, however, that there may be continuing resources which, as a matter of local policy, may be given lower priority or even excluded as far as comprehensive coverage is concerned. For example, National Centres may, as a matter of local policy, exclude ephemeral continuing resources and continuing resources of purely local interest from comprehensive registration whether they are published in printed form or electronically (see Section 0.3), even if requested by a user. Most categories of resources should always be assigned ISSN, provided that they are not ephemeral continuing resources or continuing resources of purely local interest excluded from comprehensive registration by a National Centre. These include: continuing resources for which a valid request has been received according to the criteria in Section 0.3; ceased resources that fit the general criteria for registration no matter how old; and resources with scholarly or research value regardless of whether retained in the hosting institution of the National Centre or not. In cases where National Centres are uncertain how they should proceed in defining a policy on what resources they might exclude from registration, they should seek advice from the International Centre.
0.7.2 Registration on request ISSN are assigned to continuing resources on request, regardless of the initial date of publication and status of the continuing resource (current, dead) as long as the National Centre is provided with all the necessary information and the resource falls within the definition of a continuing resource and meets the eligibility criteria adopted by the ISSN Network. Registration is not made without visual proof of the existence of the continuing resource, that is, the user requesting the assignment is asked to supply an issue of the continuing resource, copies of the pages containing the bibliographic information necessary for registration, or access information for the online resource. ISSN assignment in advance of publication (pre-publication)
When a publisher requests an ISSN for a continuing resource that is not yet published so that the ISSN may be printed on the first issue for instance, the publisher shall provide all the necessary information and documents together with the ISSN request. The registration of an ISSN assigned to a pre-publication is delayed until the National Centre receives a copy of the first issue or other acceptable proof of the existence of the continuing resource. Provisional registration in the form of work records is possible. Work records are provisional ISSN records based on pre-publication information. These records can be viewed only by the National Centres and not by subscribers of the ISSN Register as available at http://portal.issn.org.
- - 21 - -
Cancellation of publication
When a publication is cancelled before the appearance of the first issue, the ISSN that was assigned on a provisional basis is suppressed and cannot be re-assigned. Circulation of requests
Requests from users in a given country are addressed to the National Centre of that country. The National Centre processes all requests concerning its own national continuing resources output, and forwards requests relating to continuing resources published by international organizations or multinational publishers, or to continuing resources published outside its country (see Section 0.6) to the appropriate Centre. Time of response to requests
At the discretion of the National Centre, a request for assignment of an ISSN to an individual title is answered as quickly as possible, preferably within 10 business days after receipt of the request. Urgent requests may be communicated to the National Centre by telephone, fax or e-mail providing that the supporting documentation is available. Requests concerning a limited number of continuing resources should be answered within two months. Requests which involve a large number of continuing resources are negotiated with the appropriate Centre. In cases where a National Centre is unable, or fails, to respond to a request within the prescribed time limits the International Centre assigns the ISSN and informs the National Centre of the assignment.
0.7.3 Input to the ISSN Register Records are transmitted to the International Centre, preferably weekly or monthly, and by all electronic means: MARC records concatenated in MARC files may be transferred by e-mail or sent via FTP, or may be harvested by the International Centre through an OAI-PMH process. Records may also be entered in a specific Excel template provided by the International Centre, in case a National Centre does not have the technical facilities to produce a suitable electronic file of ISSN records, or to use the cataloguing client of the information system of the International Centre. The bibliographic data elements are recorded according to the specifications of this Manual and MARC 21 and UNIMARC8. Records are also established directly in the ISSN Register by the International Centre and those National Centres which use the cataloguing client of the information system of the International Centre. Records of continuing resources issued in non-roman alphabets or scripts are romanized by the National Centres before transmission to the International Centre (or before creation in the information system of the International Centre) in accordance with appropriate ISO standards, or other standards accepted by the ISSN Network. When such romanization is required, National Centres are highly recommended to record additionally the title proper, variant title, issuing body and publication information (name and location of the publisher) in original non-roman scripts in accordance with MARC 21 or UNIMARC instructions (see Section 24). Once a record has been entered in the ISSN Register, National Centres endeavour to notify the International Centre of any changes which may occur after initial input. Amendments or replacements
8 ISSN MARC is no longer maintained by the ISSN International Centre.

are transmitted to the International Centre in accordance with the procedures used for the initial transmission of the records.
1. THE ISSN RECORD The process of continuing resource registration for the ISSN Network includes the assignment of ISSN and key title as well as the preparation of the accompanying ISSN bibliographic record. Because of its bibliographic data this ISSN record represents the authority record for continuing resource titles.
1.1 Content and functions The ISSN record includes mandatory and optional data elements which serve different functions relating to:
• unique identifier of the continuing resource (ISSN and key title);
• additional information describing the continuing resource;
• linking or collocating the different medium versions of the same continuing resource (ISSN-L);
• linking the continuing resource to other continuing resources;
• the content of the continuing resource (subject classification);
• intellectual responsibility for the continuing resource (issuing body);
• the use of the continuing resource (coverage by abstracting and indexing services);
• the electronic address of the resource (URL, e-mail);
• and coded elements, for example, the country code, frequency, language and physical medium codes.
A number of descriptive data elements included in the ISSN record are the same as those appearing in the bibliographic records of national bibliographic agencies following national cataloguing rules or international standard practices such as the ISBD, AACR2 and RDA. These include:
• title proper;
• issuing (corporate) body;
• place of publication;
• name of publisher;
• date of publication;
• linking elements relating to the bibliographic history of the continuing resource.
The ISSN record does not:
• describe a particular issue of a continuing resource;
• include other title information complementing the title proper of a continuing resource;
• mention the terms of availability relating to a continuing resource.
The ISBD record can include a number of descriptive data elements which are optional or not found in the ISSN record. Some of these are:
• extent of item, illustration statement, dimensions of item (such as 50 vol : ill.; 26 cm.);
• availability and price (such as Free to members, Annual subscription £10)
- - 23 - -
Full ISSN records
With certain exceptions, records should be submitted in full form. The data elements required are listed in the Table of ISSN data elements (Section 1.2 below).
Short ISSN records
The mandatory data elements for the short records are shown in the Table of ISSN data elements (Section 1.2 below). Short records must only be used for publications which are considered by the ISSN National Centre to be of an ephemeral nature or of purely local interest. National Centres should be able to upgrade a short record to full status if requested to do so by another Centre or a user.
1.2 Table of ISSN data elements This table lists the bibliographic data elements allowed in ISSN records in MARC 21 and UNIMARC formats (ISSN MARC is no longer maintained by the International Centre and ISSN MARC elements have been removed from the Manual). All note fields are allowed in ISSN records (fields 5XX in MARC 21, 3XX in UNIMARC). They are all optional but National Centres are recommended to use four of them (“system details note”, “source of description note”, “reproduction note” and the “note on the coverage by abstracting and indexing services”) when necessary. Only these four notes are listed in the table. The National Centres are recommended to consult MARC 21 and UNIMARC documentation for further details about the other note fields. Notes may be recorded in the language of the National Centre.

1.3 Punctuation The punctuation described in this Section is based on the MARC 21 bibliographic format. Each bibliographic data element of the ISSN record has its prescribed punctuation. The equal sign (=), colon (:), semi-colon (;), parentheses (()), square brackets ([]) and the mark of omission (...) are preceded and followed by a space. The point (.) and comma (,) are only followed by a space. By "space" is meant a single space on a computer keyboard or an em space in printing. In printing or in displays of the ISSN and key title, whether in that order or in the order key title and ISSN, the two data elements are separated by space equals space. The slash (/) is not used in ISSN records except where it occurs naturally in a title, name of an issuing body or the imprint. The colon (:) is used in ISSN records in the imprint field (260), and where it occurs naturally in a title, etc. The semi-colon (;) is used to separate one place of publication from another in the imprint, and where it occurs naturally in a title, etc. Square brackets ([ ]) are used: i. to enclose uncertain, unknown or approximate information of place or date of publication or publisher in the imprint and, ii. to enclose verbal representations of symbols occurring in titles which cannot be translated into machine-readable language, and, iii to enclose information which is taken from other sources than the prescribed sources. Square brackets are not otherwise used in ISSN records, except where they occur naturally in a title, etc. Parentheses are used to enclose qualifying information in key titles and abbreviated key titles. If they appear naturally at the end of the title they should be omitted or replaced by comma.
1.3.1 Punctuation of the key title Point (.)
precedes a Section title or a Section designation and separates it from the common title; separates the non-distinctive title of a supplement, an inset, a sub-series, or a sub-series designation from the title of the main publication or of the main series; separates the place and date of publication and any other element in qualifying information.
Comma (,)
between various elements of a title, and separating a Section or sub-series title from a Section or sub-series designation. Mark of omission (...)
indicates the omission of words or numbers within a title (not used at the beginning of a title, except when they occur naturally).
Square brackets ([])
enclose verbal representations of symbols occurring in titles which cannot be translated into machine-readable language.

1.3.2 Punctuation of titles proper Point (.)
precedes a Section title or a Section designation and separates it from the common title; separates the non-distinctive title of a supplement, an inset, a sub-series, or a sub-series designation from the title of the main publication or of the main series; ends each title proper, even when another mark of punctuation is present, unless the last word in the field is an abbreviation, initial/letter, or data that ends with final punctuation.
Comma (,)
between various elements of a title, and separating a Section or sub-series title from a Section or sub-series designation. Mark of omission (...)
indicates the omission of words or numbers within a title (not used at the beginning of a title, except when they occur naturally).
Square brackets ([])
enclose verbal representations of symbols occurring in titles which cannot be translated into machine-readable language.
1.3.3 Punctuation of variant titles Point (.)
precedes a Section title or a Section designation and separates it from the common title; separates the non-distinctive title of a supplement, an inset, a sub-series or a sub-series designation from the title or the main publication or of the main series; separates the place and date of publication and any other element in qualifying information. Comma (,)
between various elements of a title, and separating a Section or sub-series title from a Section or sub-series designation.
Mark of omission (...)
indicates the omission of words or numbers within a title (not used at the beginning of a title, except when they occur naturally).
Parentheses (())
enclose possible qualifying information. Square brackets ([])
enclose verbal representations of symbols occurring in titles which cannot be translated into machine-readable language.
- - 30 - -
1.3.4 Punctuation of the abbreviated key title Point (.)
at the end of all abbreviated words. Comma (,)
replaces a point supplied by cataloguer in the key title. Mark of omission (...)
present in the key title are not retained in the abbreviated key title.
Parentheses (())
enclose qualifying information.
1.3.5 Punctuation of the publishing information Comma (,)
separates place names and qualifiers, for example, Boston, Mass; separates hierarchical elements in publishers' names.
Square brackets ([])
enclose uncertain, unknown or approximate information of place or date of publication or publisher; enclose information taken from other source than the prescribed sources. Hyphen (-)
between the start date and the end date of publication which differ from those given in field 008. Semi-colon (;)
precedes the subsequent place(s) of publication. Colon (:)
precedes the name(s) of publisher(s). Comma (,)

Mark of omission (...)
indicates the omission of words or numbers within a title (not used at the beginning of a title, except when they occur naturally). Parentheses (())
enclose qualifying information.
1.4 Language, script and capitalization of ISSN records All data elements in the ISSN records are registered in the language or languages in which they appear on the publication, except in field 710. The data elements appearing in scripts other than roman are romanized for incorporation into the ISSN Register. When such romanization is required, National Centres are highly recommended to record additionally the title proper, variant title, issuing body and publication information (name and location of the publisher) in original non-roman scripts in accordance with MARC 21 or UNIMARC instructions (see Section 24). Diacritics in both roman and romanized scripts are retained. Capitalization is determined by each National Centre according to national usage. In general, the first letter of the first word of each field should be a capital, except for coded fields. Other capitalization should follow the appropriate usage for the language(s) and/or script(s) used in the record. When more than one language and/or script appears in the record, each should be capitalized in accordance with the usage of that language and/or script even when this produces an inconsistent pattern of capitalization for the record as a whole.
1.5 Abbreviations and misprints In exceptional cases the abridgement of certain data elements in the record is permitted (e.g. a title (key title or variant title including a date or number that varies from issue to issue). In such cases, the omission is indicated by marks of omission. Certain abbreviations are prescribed for use in the imprint: [S.l.] = sine loco (place of publication not known) [s.n.] = sine nomine (name of publisher not known)
and are enclosed in square brackets. For rules for the abbreviated key title, see Section 7. Typographical and transcription errors in the presentation of the title on a continuing resource are corrected without indicating that a correction has been made.

1.6 Sources of information
1.6.1 Basis of the ISSN registration Serials
The basis of the ISSN registration is the first issue or, lacking this, the earliest available issue. Generally prefer the first (or earliest) issue or part over a source associated with the whole serial or with a range of more than one issue or part. Integrating resources
The basis of the ISSN registration is the current iteration of the integrating resource, except for the start date of publication.
1.6.2 Prescribed sources of information The information used in the ISSN registration of a continuing resource is taken from certain sources of the issue, part or iteration used for registration in a prescribed order of preference. For direct access electronic serials, the physical carrier or its labels should be used. In case of variation in fullness of information found in these sources, the source that provides the most complete information is to be preferred. These prescribed sources of information are used particularly, in the order given below, for the establishment of the key title (see Section 4.1). Printed resources
A. the title page (*); B. the analytical title page, cover, caption, masthead, editorial pages, colophon; C. the other preliminaries and information to be found on the wrappers and top and bottom of text pages (such as running title); D. the rest of the issue: prefaces, forewords, table of contents, text, appendices, etc.; E. sources of reference from outside the issue and not associated with it (e.g. bibliographies, publishers’ lists).
(*) When there is more than one title page, choose the title page which is in the language or script of the text, or the recto of two facing title pages, or the first of two or more title pages both or all of which are on the recto. In the case of tête-bêche (or tumble or flip-flop) publications, the choice of title pages is within the discretion of the National Centre establishing the key title. Give titles found on other title pages as variant titles (see Section 6).

2. ISSN
[MANDATORY]
The need for a brief, unique and unambiguous identification code for serial publications has been long recognized. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) evolved such an identification code in its standard ISO 3297: Information and documentation - International standard serial number (ISSN). It recognized that the exchange of information about continuing resources between the computer systems of different organizations imposed the requirement for a standard code. As communication between the different organizations transcended national boundaries it was decided that an International code should be numeric, since no single alphabet would be used by the majority of producers and users of serials. Careful and thorough investigation suggested that the ISSN should not attempt to incorporate any significance other than the unique identification of a serial title. It was decided that an eight-digit number (including one check digit) would be sufficient as the basis for numbering all serials. As a consequence of spreading digital resources and of developments in cataloguing practice this code has been applicable for all continuing resources beginning from the 21st century (see Section 0.2).
2.1 Construction of ISSN An ISSN consists of eight digits. These are the Arabic numerals 0 to 9, except that an upper case X can sometimes occur in the final position as a check digit. Since ISSN are likely to be used in the same context as codes designed for other purposes, such as the International Standard Book Number (ISBN) or local control numbers, a distinction must be preserved in the form of presentation when written or printed. An ISSN is, therefore, preceded by these letters, and appears as two groups of four digits, separated by a hyphen. e.g. ISSN 0317-8471 ISSN 1050-124X
The check digit is always located in the extreme right (low order) position, and is calculated on a modulus 11 basis using weights 8 to 2.
- - 35 - -
Calculating the check digit
The purpose of a check digit is to guard against errors caused by the incorrect transcription of an ISSN. The modulus 11 basis using the weighting factors 8 to 2 for calculating the check digit is one of the most efficient systems for detecting transcription errors. The procedure for calculating the check digit, which may be carried out automatically in a computer, is as follows:
1.Take the first seven digits of the ISSN (the check digit is the eighth and last digit)
0 3 1 7 8 4 7
2.Take the weighting factors associated with each digit 8 7 6 5 4 3 2
3. Multiply each digit in turn by its weighting factor 0 21 6 35 32 12 14
4. Add these numbers together 0+21+6+35+32+12+14=120
5.Divide this sum by the modulus 11 120:11=10 remainder 10
6. Subtract the remainder from 11 11-10 1
7. Add the remainder, which is the check digit, to the extreme right (low order) position of the base number of the ISSN
0317-8471
If the remainder is 10, substitute an upper case X in the check digit position. If there is no remainder, put a zero in the check digit position
Editorial note: the check digit is an essential and inseparable part of the ISSN.
2.2 General rules for ISSN assignment Only one ISSN is assigned to a continuing resource in a defined medium. This ISSN is permanently linked to a standardized form of title, called the key title, established by the National Centre at the time of registration. In cases where the continuing resource undergoes a major change in title or other major changes as defined in Section 2.3, a new ISSN and a new key title shall be assigned. When a distinct continuing resource exists within another continuing resource, whatever the form of presentation (e.g., an insert), each continuing resource shall receive its own individual key title and ISSN. When a continuing resource is published in different media, with the same title or not, different ISSN and key titles shall be assigned to the different versions. Publications available simultaneously in several remote access versions (online versions) and publications printed on demand are exceptions treated as described in Section 2.2.3. When the medium of the continuing resource changes, a new ISSN and a new key title shall be assigned (see Section 2.3).
- - 36 - -
2.2.1 Continuing resources published in different language editions Continuing resources published in different language editions have a separate ISSN and key title assigned to each edition (see Section 4.1.2.6). e.g. Le courrier de l’Unesco (Imprimé) = ISSN 0304-3118 The Unesco courier (Print) = ISSN 0041-5278 Camera (Deutsche Ausg.) = ISSN 0008-2074 Camera (Ed. française) = ISSN 0373-9740 Camera (English ed.) = ISSN 0366-7073
2.2.2 Continuing resources published in different geographic editions Continuing resources published in different geographic editions have a separate ISSN and key title assigned to each edition (see Section 4.1.2.7). e.g. Access West (Alberta ed.) = ISSN 1700-8646 Access West (British Columbia ed.) = ISSN 1700-8662 Access West (Saskatchewan ed.) = ISSN 1700-8751 Access West (Manitoba ed.) = ISSN 1700-8735
2.2.3 Continuing resources published in different media Continuing resources published in different media (e.g., print serials, e-journals, CD-ROM) have a separate ISSN and key title assigned to each manifestation (see Section 4.1.2.9). e.g. Biological abstracts = ISSN 0006-3169 Biological abstracts on compact disk = ISSN 1058-4129 ISSN Compact = ISSN 1018-4783 ISSN Online = ISSN 1560-1560
A single ISSN is assigned to identify all online versions made available under the same title including: versions digitized from print, born digital versions, versions available simultaneously in different encoding formats such as PDF or HTML, and versions for mobile phones, e-readers etc11. For exceptions to this general rule, please see Section b) below. a) The ISSN record describes one of the online versions only but the corresponding ISSN is used as a shared identifier for all the related online versions. Base the bibliographic description on the online version which:
1) is published by the same publisher as the print version,
2) is the most complete online version.
Additionally, specify which version was used for creating the bibliographic description by recording a note (note field 588 in MARC 21 and 303 in UNIMARC) and provide the URL of the other versions.
11 This rule, provisionally adopted at the end of 2011, is currently assessed by the ISSN Network and thus may change in the future.

Optionally, you may:
• add a note specifying the mode(s) of access or the type(s) of device required (note field 538 in
MARC 21 and 337 in UNIMARC, see Section 21),
• and use subfield $q of field 856 (MARC 21 and UNIMARC) to note information about the format
of the online resource (see Section 23).

b) Exceptions Assign separate ISSN:
• to any of the online versions which belong to different content types (spoken word vs text for example)
• if the content of the online versions is sufficiently different to be considered as separate resources
e.g. two different ISSN have been assigned to the online daily edition of the newspaper Le Républicain lorrain [Le Républicain lorrain (En ligne) = ISSN 2262-4856] and to the website Le Républicain lorrain [Le Républicain lorrain (Site) = ISSN 2102-6793] because their content differs significantly. The website [Le Républicain lorrain (Site) = ISSN 2102-6793] is also available for mobile devices as indicated in the 538 note below.

Editorial note: print on demand is not considered a separate medium version. The ISSN assigned to the online version is used for any print on demand issues.
2.2.4 Other editions When a continuing resource is published in different editions such as International ed., monthly ed., etc., each edition has its own key title and ISSN (see Section 4.1.2.10). e.g. Forecasting your future = ISSN 0834-5074 Editorial note: Annual edition Your daily cycle guide (Monthly ed.) = ISSN 0711-1231 Editorial note: Monthly edition Banka (International ed.) = ISSN 1330-9781 Banka (Zagreb) = ISSN 0353-6335 Kurír (Reggeli kiad.) = ISSN 0865-9001 Kurír (Délutáni kiad.) = ISSN 0865-901X Editorial note: Morning and afternoon editions
2.2.5 Cumulations When a continuing resource is cumulated, for example a national bibliography, and the cumulations bear the same title as the initial issues, are in the same language, and do not change significantly in content, the cumulations have the same ISSN and key title as the initial issues. The addition of indexes to cumulations and the re-arrangement of the contents are not considered to be significant changes. When the title of a cumulation has additional words, such as "annual", "cumulative edition", etc., that may be considered as a variant title. e.g. Alberta electric industry. Annual statistics = ISSN 0706-1420
Editorial note: with a variant title Alberta electric industry. Cumulative annual statistics (The annual publication has less frequent cumulations)
- - 39 - -
When the contents of cumulations are significantly different a new ISSN and key title are assigned. e.g. Magyar könyvészet (Budapest. 1961) = ISSN 0133-3496 Note: cumulation of Magyar nemzeti bibliográfia. Könyvek bibliográfiája = ISSN 0133-6843
2.2.6 Reproductions and reprints Reproductions in a medium different from the medium of the original edition, including digital media, are eligible for ISSN assignment. Although eligible for ISSN assignment, reproductions in microform are generally not assigned separate ISSN. In these cases, the ISSN assigned to the original print version can be used for the reproduction. e.g. West-Quebec post = ISSN 0834-5805
Note: this ISSN is valid for the original edition and the reproduction on microform.
Reprints and reproductions in a medium identical to the medium of the original edition are not assigned separate ISSN. The ISSN assigned to the original version is valid for the reprint or the reproduction.
2.2.7 Loose-leafs Some loose-leaf publications are serials and some are integrating resources: 1. If the publication has holes punched for insertion into a binder but is otherwise published in a
succession of issues as any other serial, it should be treated as a serial; 2. If the publication is updated by replacement pages but is completely replaced on a regular basis by a
new edition, annually for example, it can be treated as a serial; 3. If new material is to be added indefinitely by replacement pages, the publication is an integrating
resource. In the case of 2 or 3, assign an ISSN to the whole publication. This includes: 1. base binder, 2. updates, 3. and publication announcing updates (if specific to this publication).
- - 40 - -
2.2.8 Mergers and splits
2.2.8.1 Mergers Assign a new ISSN and key title to a continuing resource which has been formed by the merging of two or more other continuing resources, unless the title of one of the merged continuing resources is kept as the title of the new publication, in which case the original key title and ISSN will remain valid. A new ISSN and key title are not assigned if there have been only minor changes in title as a result of the merger. e.g.
Archivio di ottalmologia = ISSN 0004-0134 and Rassegna italiana di ottalmologia = ISSN 0300-0672 merged to form Archivio e rassegna italiana di ottalmologia = ISSN 0300-0109
Hoverfoil news = ISSN 0018-6767 absorbed New transport technology = ISSN 0306-0543 remained as Hoverfoil news = ISSN 0018-6767
2.2.8.2 Splits Assign new ISSN and key titles to each of two or more titles which result from a split in a continuing resource, except in cases where the original title is kept by one of the new publications or where the original key title is still applicable.
e.g.
Library bulletin (Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation) = ISSN 0384-2444 Accession list. Periodical articles (Library. Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation) = ISSN 0384-2452 Succeeded: Accession list (Library. Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation) = ISSN 0384-2436
2.2.9 Sections, supplements, insets and sub-series When a continuing resource:
(a) has regular supplements; or (b) has another continuing resource inserted into it; or (c) has sub-series; or (d) when its titles consist of a common title and several dependent title designations and/or
dependent titles; then each of these continuing resources has its own ISSN and key title.
- - 41 - -
e.g. Main continuing resource: Symbolae Osloenses = ISSN 0039-7679 Supplement: Symbolae Osloenses. Fasciculi suppletorii = ISSN 0332-561X
Main continuing resource: Art et poésie (Revue) = ISSN 0518-7648 Supplement: Horizons 21 (Bruay-en-Artois) = ISSN 0182-5976
Action transport = ISSN 0249-6143 Inset in: Transport public = ISSN 0249-5643
Sections: Analecta Vaticano-Belgica. Section A, Nonciature de Flandre = ISSN 0066-1414 Analecta Vaticano-Belgica. Section B, Nonciature de Cologne = ISSN 0066-1422 Analecta Vaticano-Belgica. Section C, Nonciature Bruxelles = ISSN 0066-1430
Main series: Cancer series (Nyíregyháza) = ISSN 0139-2867 Sub-series: Cancer mortality in the county Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg = ISSN 1216-6189
2.2.10 Resumption of titles Resumption of publication under former title
When the title of a continuing resource is changed back to an earlier title after an interval of publication under another title, assign a new ISSN to the resumed title and distinguish the key title from the original by adding the new start date in parentheses. e.g.
Revue d'immunologie = ISSN 0035-2454 Revue d'immunologie et de thérapie antimicrobienne = ISSN 0370-582X Revue d'immunologie (1970) = ISSN 0397-9539
Resumption of publication under same title
When a continuing resource resumes publication, and it has not been published under another title in the interval, keep the ISSN and key title already assigned. e.g. Life (Chicago) = ISSN 0024-3019 Editorial note: published 1936-1972, resumed publication 1978
- - 42 - -
2.3 Changes in continuing resources requiring a new ISSN assignment
When the wording of a title, as it appears in the title source, is changed, a new ISSN and key title may be assigned depending on whether the change is a major or a minor one. Other changes in continuing resources, like the physical medium are also considered as major changes. A major change will result in a new ISSN and key title being assigned, whereas a minor change will not. In all cases each Centre will decide, so far as the continuing resources within its jurisdiction are concerned, whether a change in a continuing resource necessitates the assignment of a new ISSN and key title. In case of doubt a title change should be regarded as minor and be recorded as a variant title.
2.3.1 Major changes in title proper of continuing resources For major changes in the title proper of a continuing resource, apply these instructions, as appropriate: • Languages and scripts that divide text into words (see 2.3.1.1) • Languages and scripts that do not divide text into words (see 2.3.1.2) All the instructions below apply to the original forms of titles proper and not, when applicable, to the romanized forms. A new ISSN and a new key title are required in cases of major changes in the title proper. The following are to be considered major changes, exceptions are listed in Section 2.4.1.
2.3.1.1 For languages and scripts that divide text into words
a) when the addition, deletion, change or reordering of any word occurs within the first five words (the first six words if the title begins with an article) of the title proper;
e.g.
La recherche aéronautique = ISSN 0370-3533 becomes La recherche aérospatiale = ISSN 0034-1223
Tidsskrift for norsk sykepleieforskning = ISSN 0801-1923 becomes Norsk tidsskrift for sykepleieforskning = ISSN 1501-4754
ICSU review = ISSN 0536-1338 becomes ICSU review of world science = ISSN 0367-7338
Revue générale du caoutchouc = ISSN 0370-503X becomes Revue générale du caoutchouc et des plastiques = ISSN 0035-3175 becomes Caoutchoucs & plastiques (Paris) = ISSN 1154-1105
- - 43 - -
b) When the addition, deletion or change of any word occurs after the first five words (the first six words if the title begins with an article) and changes the meaning of the title proper or indicates a different subject matter;
e.g.
Moving to San Francisco and the Bay Area = ISSN 0714-7295 Becomes Moving to the San Francisco Bay Area and Greater Sacramento = ISSN 0828-4601
Rental market report, Barrie CA = ISSN 1207-1765 becomes Rental market report, Barrie CA and Bracebridge, Collingwood CA, Gravenhurst, Huntsville, Midland CA, Orillia CA = ISSN 1207-1773
The best bed & breakfasts in the world = ISSN 1057-5472 becomes The best bed & breakfasts in England, Scotland & Wales = ISSN 1054-4089
c) When a corporate body, named anywhere in the title proper, changes, unless the change belongs to one or more of the categories listed as minor changes.
e.g.
NFCR Cancer Research Association symposia = ISSN 0742-521X becomes Association for International Cancer Research symposia = ISSN 0887-8390
AECB staff annual report for … on the Canadian nuclear power industry = ISSN 1497-0406 becomes CNSC staff annual report for … on the Canadian nuclear power industry = ISSN 1706-8037
Annual report of the Ontario Advisory Council on Multiculturalism = ISSN 0704-2655 becomes Annual report (Ontario Advisory Council on Multiculturalism and Citizenship) = ISSN 0710-8990
2.3.1.2 For languages and scripts that do not divide text into words12
a) When an addition, deletion, change or reordering of any component13 of the title proper changes the meaning of the title or indicates a different subject matter;
e.g.
林林林业 = = ISSN 1001-4462 becomes 林林林林林林业 业业= = ISSN 2095-2953
b) When a corporate body, named anywhere in the title proper, changes, unless the change belongs to one or more of the categories listed as minor changes.
12 Chinese, Japanese and Thai. Although Korean divides text into words, the rules under 2.3.1.2 apply also to this language because its grammatical concepts are different from Indo-European languages. 13 A character or group of characters
- - 44 - -
e.g.
北京市政法管理干部学院学报 = ISSN1008-7273
Becomes
北京政法职业学院学报 = ISSN1672-9285
2.3.2 Other major changes to continuing resources A new ISSN and a new key title also are required in the following cases: a) when the title proper is a generic term, and the issuing body used as qualifying information changes its name, except as indicated below (see Section 2.4.1) or the continuing resource is issued by a different body; e.g. Bulletin d’information (Compagnie financière de Suez) = ISSN 1153-4087 becomes
Bulletin d’information (Compagnie financière de Suez et de l’Union parisienne) = ISSN 0182-5348 Research paper (University of Alberta. Dept. of Economics) = ISSN 1204-5314 becomes Research paper (University of Alberta. Institute for Public Economics) = ISSN 1485-0419
Varia (Universitets oldsaksamling) = ISSN 0333-1296 becomes Varia (Universitetets kulturhistoriske museer. Oldsaksamlingen) = ISSN 1503-0806
b) when the edition statement changes and indicates a significant change to the scope or coverage of the continuing resource;
e.g. ABC (Ed. especial aérea) = ISSN 1136-0194 becomes ABC (Ed. internacional) = ISSN 1136-0232 Profiles of success (Burlington ed.) = ISSN 1707-0651 becomes Profiles of success (Oakville-Burlington ed.) = ISSN 1707-066X
c) when the physical medium of the continuing resource changes (e.g. printed edition vs. online);
e.g. Terminomètre (Paris) = ISSN 1012-4993 becomes Terminometro (Ed. française. En ligne) = ISSN 1609-9931
d) when hitherto dependent titles become independent:
e.g. Fauna Norvegica. Series B, Norwegian journal of entomology = ISSN 0332-7698 becomes Norwegian journal of entomology (1999) = ISSN 1501-8415
- - 45 - -
e) when a continuing resource is cumulated, and the cumulations bear the same title as the initial issues and are in the same language and the contents of the cumulations are significantly different (e.g. when the contents of quarterly issues of an index are merged into a single alphabet for the annual issue);
e.g. Új könyvek (Kumuláció) = ISSN 0209-8105 Cumulation of: Új könyvek = ISSN 0049-5069 Editorial note: contents of biweekly issues are re-arranged in subject groups and within them
merged into a single alphabet.
f) when a continuing resource is formed by the merger of two or more other continuing resources;
e.g. Archivio di ottalmologia = ISSN 0004-0134 and Rassegna Italiana di ottalmologia = ISSN 0300-0672 merged to form Archivio e rassegna Italiana di ottalmologia = ISSN 0300-0109
g) when two or more continuing resources are formed from the split of a continuing resource. e.g. Geografi i Bergen = ISSN 0801-5783 becomes Geografi i Bergen. Serie A, Meddelelser fra Institutt for geografi-Bergen = ISSN 0806-671X and Geografi i Bergen. Serie B, Monografier fra Institutt for geografi-Bergen = ISSN 0806-6728
AAA world (Alaska, Hawaii ed.) = ISSN 1063-3863 becomes Car & travel (Alaska ed.) = ISSN 1080-2215 and Car & travel (Hawaii ed.) = ISSN 1080-2258
2.4 Changes in continuing resources not requiring a new ISSN assignment
2.4.1 Minor changes in title proper of continuing resources
A new ISSN and a key title are not assigned in cases of minor changes in the title proper. In general, if a minor change occurs in the title proper, the later title is given as variant title.
The following are to be considered minor changes:
a) The change is in the representation of a word or words (a component or components of the title for those languages and scripts that do not divide text into words);
- - 46 - -
Change in the form of the character
e.g.
會報 becomes
会報
One spelling vs. another
e.g.
Statistisk aarbog for kongeriget Norge becomes Statistisk årbok for kongeriket Norge
Labour history becomes Labor history
Abbreviated word or sign or symbol (e.g. “&”) vs. spelled-out form
e.g.
Accommodations and travel services becomes Accommodations & travel services
Ga. peach statistics becomes Georgia peach statistics
Arabic numeral vs. Roman numeral
e.g.
XXe siècle becomes 20e siècle
Number or date vs. spelled-out form
e.g.
Four wheel fun becomes 4 wheel fun
- - 47 - -
Hyphenated word vs. unhyphenated word
e.g.
Year-book of the … becomes Year book of the …
One-word compound vs. two-word compound, whether hyphenated or not
e.g.
Openhouse becomes Open house
b) The change involves an acronym or initialism vs. the full form;
e.g.
Research in technological adaptation becomes RITA
师大 becomes
师范大学
c) The change is in the inflexion of a word, for example from singular to plural form; e.g.
Fishery report becomes Fisheries report
d) The change is the addition, deletion, or change of articles, prepositions, and conjunctions (or any « function elements » 14 for those languages which do not use these categories) anywhere in the title, provided that there is no significant change in the subject matter;
e.g.
Canadian music trades journal becomes Canadian music and trades journal Fiscal survey of the states becomes The fiscal survey of states
14 Function elements are part of the speech with little lexical meaning which serves to express grammatical relationships with other elements within a sentence, or specify the attitude or mood of the speaker.
- - 48 - -
e) The change involves the name of the same corporate body and elements of its hierarchy or their grammatical connection anywhere in the title (e.g. the addition, deletion, or rearrangement of the name of the corporate body or the substitution of a variant form, including an abbreviation);
e.g.
Bulletin (Société des amis de la Cathédrale de Strasbourg) becomes Bulletin de la Société des amis de la Cathédrale de Strasbourg
Society of Biblical Literature monograph series becomes Monograph series (Society of Biblical Literature)
Views (Goodridge Area Historical Society) becomes Views from the Goodridge Area Historical Society becomes Views from the GAHS
Berichte der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Mathematik und Datenverarbeitung becomes GMD-Berichte
f) the change is the addition, deletion, or change of punctuation, including initialisms and letters with separating punctuation vs. those without separating punctuation, anywhere in the title;
e.g.
GBB becomes G.B.B.
g) The change is in the order of titles when the title is given in more than one language on the chief source of information, provided that the title chosen as title proper still appears as a parallel title;
e.g.
South African medical journal Parallel title: Suid Afrikaanse tydskrift vir geneeskunde becomes Suid Afrikaanse tydskrift vir geneeskunde Parallel title: South African medical journal
h) The change is the addition, deletion, or change of words (or components of the title for those languages and scripts that do not divide text into words ) anywhere in the title that link the title to the numbering;
e.g.
Tin becomes Tin in …
- - 49 - -
i) Two or more titles proper are used on different issues of a continuing resource according to a regular pattern;
e.g.
Weekly labor market report Last issue each month has title: Monthly labor market report
Minneapolis morning tribune Sunday issues have title: Minneapolis Sunday tribune Editorial note: Daily issues and Sunday issues have consecutive numbering.
Annual report (Medical Association of South Africa) Reports for alternate years have title: Jaarverslag (Die Mediese Vereniging van Suid-Afrika)
j) The addition to, deletion from, or change in the order of words (or components of the title for those languages and scripts that do not divide text into words ) in a list anywhere in the title, provided that there is no significant change in the subject matter;
e.g.
Kartboken for Oslo, Bærum, Lørenskog, Nesodden, Oppegård og Ski becomes Kartboken for Oslo, Bærum, Asker, Lørenskog, Nesodden, Oppegård og Ski
k) The addition, deletion or re-arrangement anywhere in the title of words (or components of the title for those languages and scripts that do not divide text into words ) that indicate the type of continuing resource such as “magazine”, “journal”, “notebook”, or “newsletter”, or their equivalent in other languages;
e.g.
硏修 實施槪況報告 becomes
硏修實施槪況報告集 Handel und Industrie becomes Revue Handel und Industrie Magazin für Wassersport becomes Wassersport Trade and industry becomes Trade and industry review but not: Link magazine becomes: Link journal
Editorial note: the change from one word indicating the type of resource to a different word indicating a type of resource is a major change if it occurs in the first five words of the title (see Section 2.3.1).
- - 50 - -
2.4.2 Other minor changes A new ISSN and key title are not assigned. Nevertheless, changes are recorded as variant titles, in the following cases: a) when the place of publication entered as qualifying information is changed; e.g.
Key title: System (Linköping) = ISSN 0346-251X Variant title: System (Oxford)
b) when a change in the edition statement entered as qualifying information does not convey a change in subject matter; e.g.
Key title: SKW-Trostberg-Report (International ed.) = ISSN 0947-1928 Variant title: SKW-Trostberg-Report (English ed.)
Key title: Magyar hírlap (Budapesti kiad.) = ISSN 0133-1906 Variant title: Magyar hírlap (Fővárosi kiad.)
2.5 Cancellation of an ISSN and deletion of an ISSN record Cancellation of an ISSN and deletion15 of an ISSN record are two different functions used for different reasons: A cancellation of an ISSN has to be made when the same ISSN is assigned to more than one continuing resource, or when more than one ISSN is assigned to the same continuing resource. A cancellation of an ISSN is always made in favour of the valid ISSN, therefore a cancelled ISSN is always linked to one or more valid ISSN. A deletion of an ISSN record has to be made when the described resource is not a continuing resource, or when the described resource has never been published. Therefore a deleted record will not be available in the ISSN Register.
2.5.1 Cancelling an ISSN assignment One ISSN assigned to two or more continuing resources
Cancel a single ISSN incorrectly assigned to two or more continuing resources and assign a new ISSN and key title to each continuing resource. e.g.
ISSN 0010-860X = Copper information cancelled in favour of ISSN 0302-7082 = Copper information. Architectural series ISSN 0302-7090 = Copper information. Engineering series
15 Deletion was formerly called suppression, and both words have the same meaning as ISSN function.
- - 51 - -
ISSN 0075-7586 = Labour standards in Canada cancelled in favour of ISSN 0576-1123 = Labour standards in Canada ISSN 0576-1131 = Normes du travail au Canada ISSN 0042-434X = Vers demain cancelled in favour of ISSN 0317-848X = Vers demain (English ed.) ISSN 0317-8471 = Vers demain (Ed. française)
More than one ISSN assigned to a single continuing resource
When two or more ISSN are incorrectly assigned to a single title, generally consider the lowest number valid and cancel the higher number or numbers. In cases where the higher ISSN is already being printed on the publication, cancel the lower ISSN and keep the higher one. Generally, in cases where one ISSN is already being printed on the publication, cancel the other ISSN and keep the printed one. Do not ask a publisher to change the ISSN of a continuing resource when the ISSN is printed correctly and the title has not changed. e.g. ISSN 0500-0270 = Astronomical phenomena cancelled in favour of ISSN 0083-2421 = Astronomical phenomena
Cancelled ISSN must not be re-assigned
When an ISSN incorrectly assigned has been cancelled it should not be re-assigned to another title. In this case the ISSN re-assignment is only made when the ISSN was, by mistake, cancelled. ISSN re-assignment information sheet must be completed and sent with the corresponding record (see Annex 9). Recording of cancelled ISSN
Cancelled ISSN are reported in a specific subfield of the record for the corresponding valid ISSN (see Section 2.7).
2.5.2 Deleting an ISSN record Delete an ISSN record when the described resource is not a continuing resource, or when the described resource has never been published. A deleted record will not be available in the ISSN Register. The ISSN on the deleted records should not be re-assigned to another title. The ISSN may be re-used only if the ISSN record was, by mistake, deleted. The ISSN re-assignment information sheet must be completed and sent with the corresponding record (see Annex 9).
- - 52 - -
Recording of deletion
The deletion of an ISSN record is reported by using the specific deletion information sheet (see Annex 8). The ISSN record deletion information sheet must be completed and sent with the corresponding record. The deleted ISSN should not appear in any other record, either in any subfield of an ISSN field or in any link field.
2.6 Display of ISSN on continuing resource issues or iterations The ISSN shall be displayed on or in the first issue and on or in each subsequent issue or on each iteration of a continuing resource. Continuing resources issued with accompanying parts shall display the ISSN on or in each component part. When a continuing resource bears an ISSN as well as another standard number, such as an ISBN for a volume of a series, the two numbers shall appear together and each number shall be identified by its own prefix: ISSN and ISBN or another appropriate prefix. References to ISSN shall be included in promotional material and catalogues. When more than one ISSN appears on a single publication in relation to different continuing resource titles, for example, the titles of a main series and its sub-series, each ISSN shall appear on the continuing resource and shall be distinguished by either adding the full or abbreviated title in parentheses after the relevant number or by printing the ISSN as close as possible to the relevant titles. When a continuing resource contains another continuing resource as an insert with a separate title page, the ISSN for the insert shall be printed on that title page, or in some other appropriate place on the insert. When continuing resources are published in different media, and different ISSN and key titles are assigned (see Section 2.2.3), the related ISSN may also be displayed in the continuing resources, each with additional, distinguishing information, as follows: e.g. ISSN 1562-6865 (Online) ISSN 1063-7710 (Print) or: Online edition: ISSN 1562-6865 Print edition: ISSN 1063-7710
2.6.1 Display of ISSN on printed continuing resource issues The ISSN shall be printed in a prominent position on each printed continuing resource issue in the following order of preference: front cover, title page, caption, masthead, back cover, colophon or editorial pages. On a periodical the ISSN shall be printed preferably in the top right-hand corner of the front cover, although it is appreciated that such a position may not always be convenient because of binding or design considerations. In the case of tête-bêche publications, the ISSN shall be printed on both covers (or title pages, captions, mastheads, colophons, editorial pages).
- - 53 - -
2.6.2 Display of ISSN on non-printed continuing resources issues On continuing resources published in tangible non-print formats, the ISSN shall be displayed on all accessible eye-readable portions (e.g. container, label, fiche header). On a continuing resource published on microfiche, the ISSN shall be entered in the identification area of the header of the microfiche and/or on the labels. On a continuing resource published in electronic medium (online continuing resource, CD-ROM), the ISSN shall appear on the title screen, or failing it, on the main menu, and, if applicable, on any labels permanently affixed to the publication. If it is not possible to display the ISSN on the item or its label, the ISSN shall be displayed on the container. On online continuing resources using metadata (e.g. Dublin Core), the ISSN shall be included in the element “Identifier” of the metadata.

3. ISSN-L
[MANDATORY]
The ISSN-L has been defined to meet the need for a collocation, or grouping mechanism that brings together the various medium versions of a continuing resource, and thus facilitates content management.
3.1 Designation of ISSN-L The ISSN assigned to any medium version of a continuing resource and first entered into the ISSN Register is designated automatically by the information system of the International Centre to function as the ISSN-L. The designated ISSN-L applies to all other medium versions of that resource identified in the ISSN Register at that time or that may be entered into the ISSN Register in the future. An ISSN-L is designated for each continuing resource identified in the ISSN Register, even if the continuing resource is issued in only one medium. Only one ISSN-L is designated regardless of how many different medium versions of a continuing resource exist. The ISSN-L can be also designated by ISSN National Centres in their local information system and reported to the International Centre. Those ISSN National Centres who wish to undertake this responsibility must inform the International Centre.
3.1.1 Use of fields 776 for the designation of ISSN-L For resources that exist in more than one media version, the same ISSN-L is designated for all records that are linked by field 776 (Additional physical form entry). These records are treated as a group. e.g.
ISSN-L 0021-8464 Printed version: The journal of adhesion (Print) = ISSN 0021-8464 Online version: The journal of adhesion (Online) = ISSN 1563-518X CD-ROM version: The journal of adhesion (CD-ROM) = ISSN 1026-5414 ISSN-L 1818-5894 Printed version: Social policy highlight (Print) = ISSN 1818-5894 Online version: Social policy highlight (Online) = ISSN 1818-5940
For records that do not contain any field(s) 776 or that do not have a field 776 of another ISSN record pointing to them, designation of the ISSN-L is made by repeating the ISSN of the record(s) in the appropriate field for the ISSN-L.
- - 56 - -
e.g.
ISSN-L 1819-1371 Printed serial: Construction law International = ISSN 1819-1371 No other medium version
ISSN-L 1991-9336 Online serial: European journal of American studies = ISSN 1991-9336 No other medium version
Editorial note: The presence of 776 linking fields in the records is crucial for the consistent designation of ISSN-L. These 776 links should be present in the pertinent records when they are submitted to the ISSN Register. The physical medium versions do not have to be exactly the same, in content, layout or title, in order to be linked together using this field. However, they need to be equivalent in scope, e.g. do not link a record describing a resource that includes several titles in one medium to a record describing only one of these titles in another medium. Regular checks are also made at the ISSN International Centre to ensure that reciprocal and equivalent 776 linking is present in records.
3.2 Uniqueness of the ISSN-L Only one ISSN-L is designated regardless of how many different medium versions of a continuing resource exist. A continuing resource is associated with only one ISSN-L.
e.g
Continuing resource in only one medium form: ISSN-L 1748-7188 Online resource: Algorithms for molecular biology = ISSN 1748-7188 Continuing resources in two medium forms: ISSN-L 0264-2875 Printed version: Dance research = ISSN 0264-2875 Online version: Dance research (Online) = ISSN 1750-0095 Continuing resources in three medium forms: ISSN-L 1188-1534 Printed version: Plant varieties journal (Ottawa) = ISSN 1188-1534 Online version: Plant varieties journal (Ottawa. Online) = ISSN 1911-1479 CD-ROM version: Plant varieties journal (Ottawa. CD-ROM) = ISSN 1911-1460
- - 57 - -
3.3 ISSN-L and major changes When a continuing resource to which an ISSN has been assigned undergoes a major change and is therefore assigned a new ISSN (see Section 2.3), the relevant ISSN-L is designated and recorded in the new metadata record that was created with the new ISSN assignment. A basic principle is the persistence of the ISSN-L when one or more titles to which that ISSN-L pertains are still current.
Title changes
In the most common case, i.e., when the titles of all medium versions undergo a major change at the same time, a new ISSN is assigned to each version in a defined medium and a new ISSN-L is designated. In this situation, no 776 tags will link the “new” ISSN records to the “old” ISSN records. e.g
ISSN-L 0001-6772 Printed version: Acta Physiologica Scandinavica = ISSN 0001-6772 Online version: Acta Physiologica Scandinavica (Online) = ISSN 1365-201X � Title changes on all medium versions � Designation of the new ISSN-L � ISSN-L 1748-1708 Printed version: Acta Physiologica (Print) = ISSN 1748-1708 Online version: Acta Physiologica (Online) = ISSN 1748-1716
In the rarer cases where not all the medium versions undergo a major title change at the same time, the newly changed title or titles inherits the ISSN-L of the unchanged title or titles.
Fictitious examples:
ISSN-L 1234-567X Printed version: Title ABC (Print) = ISSN 1234-567X Online version: Title ABC (Online) = ISSN 5432-1234 � Title changes on only one medium version � Same ISSN-L � Same ISSN-L 1234-567X Printed version: Title ABCDEF (Print) = ISSN 2468-1012 Online version: Title ABC (Online) = ISSN 5432-1234

4. KEY TITLE
[MANDATORY]
The key title is inseparably linked to its ISSN, and like the ISSN it is unique to a particular continuing resource title. Once a key title is recorded in the ISSN Register, this key title must not be modified, except in case of a cataloguing error. The key title is established or authenticated by the ISSN National Centre responsible for the registration of the continuing resource, and is derived from the title information appearing on the title page or its equivalent of the print publication or from the most complete information on the non-print resource at the time of registration (see Section 1.6). Key titles which are otherwise identical are distinguished by addition of qualifying information to make them unique. Titles in non-roman alphabets are romanized according to ISO standards, or other agreed-upon standards where ISO standards do not exist. Typographical and transcription errors in the presentation of the title on the continuing resource are corrected without indicating that a correction has been made.
4.1 Establishment of the key title The key title is the same title as the title proper, if this title is unique in the ISSN Register at the time of registration. If this title is not unique, the key title is the title proper to which a qualifying term is added such as name of issuing body, place and/or date of publication, edition statement or medium statement, in order to make the resulting key title unique. To construct the key title, first the title proper is identified, according to the rules on title proper (see Section 5).
4.1.1 Initial articles in the key title Initial articles are retained in the key titles, but ignored in filing (see Section 4.2 regarding non-filing indicators). e.g. A hét zeneműve = ISSN 0324-7678
Der deutsche Apotheker in Hessen = ISSN 0173-7589
Omit an initial article from the name of an issuing body used in a generic title construction unless it is required for linguistic reasons. e.g. Fact book (National Institute of General Medical Sciences) = ISSN 0197-646X
Not: Fact book (The National Institute of General Medical Sciences)
- - 60 - -
4.1.2 Uniqueness of the key title When the title proper of a continuing resource is unique in the ISSN Register, that title becomes the key title. If the title proper is not unique (i.e., it is exactly identical character for character, excluding spaces, punctuation and capitalization to an existing title in the ISSN Register or it is otherwise known that there is another continuing resource with an identical title), the key title must be made unique by the addition of one or more qualifying terms to the title proper.
Qualifying information (one or more qualifying terms) is always enclosed in parentheses unless the parentheses are system-supplied. e.g. Channel business = ISSN 1493-9088 Channel business (West Drayton) = ISSN 1472-0582 Canada yearbook = ISSN 0068-8142 Canada year book (CD-ROM) = ISSN 1204-2420
4.1.2.1 Choice of qualifying terms Choose the most appropriate qualifying term(s) to distinguish two or more titles as indicated in the following instructions (4.1.2.2. to 4.1.2.10). In general, construct the key title in the most simple and brief way that will make it unique. If more than one qualifying term is needed, generally give the terms in the following order: place or issuing body (for generic titles, see Section 4.1.2.2), date, edition statement, medium. When more than one qualifying term is given, the subsequent term is preceded by a full stop and a space.
Give the qualifying information in the language of the title source, unless the language is a dead one, in which case it is given in the language of the country of publication.
4.1.2.2 Issuing body as a qualifying term for generic titles Editorial note: Until publication of the ISSN Manual in 2003, the name of the issuing body associated with a generic title was added to the generic title and not recorded as qualifying term. The title and body name were separated by a space, a hyphen, and a space.
4.1.2.3 Title proper is a «generic title» When the title proper is a «generic title» (i.e., the title consists solely of word(s) indicating the type of publication and/or the frequency, exclusive of articles, prepositions and conjunctions), such as bulletin, technical bulletin, journal, transaction, proceedings, newsletter, report, etc., or its equivalent in other languages, and the generic title is linguistically separated from and/or typographically distinguished from the name of the issuing body, use the issuing body as the qualifying term. Note that the following titles proper are not considered generic titles:
a) the title includes a word or words which indicate specific subject content or coverage,
e.g. Discussion papers in conservation = ISSN 0142-3649
Metric bulletin (Ottawa) = ISSN 0702-083X
- - 61 - -
Anuar. Economie = ISSN 1454-5454
b) the title includes an acronym or numbers
e.g. 101 newsletter = ISSN 0706-1765
O- + -P-Report = ISSN 0343-2076
c) the title consists of more than five words (exclusive of empty words, i.e., articles, conjunctions,
prepositions, etc.)
e.g. Report of the President and Vice-Chancellor to the Board of Governors and the Senate (London, Ont.) =
ISSN 0707-0233
4.1.2.4 Form of the issuing body name Use the issuing body name as a qualifying term in the form given on the title source.* e.g. Transactions (North Carolina Medical Society) = ISSN 0361-5537
Bulletin (Bach Society) = ISSN 0309-7021 Journal (North Western Society for Industrial Archeology and History) = ISSN 0141-643X
Editorial Note: Centres subject to the bibliographic agreements of the CONSER (Cooperative Online SERials) Program may transcribe the name of the issuing body in the form established by national cataloguing practice for use in headings and other access points. When the name of the issuing body appears in more than one form on the title source choose the form which is given typographical prominence, or, if that does not apply, choose the briefest form (not an acronym or initialism) which adequately identifies the issuing body. Other forms of the issuing body name may be used to construct variant titles. e.g. Key title: Annual accounts (Welsh Water Authority) = ISSN 0142-0291
Variant title: Annual accounts (Awdurdod Dwr Cymru)
- - 62 - -
When the name of the issuing body does not appear on the title source, take the name of the issuing body from elsewhere in the piece. If more than one form appears in the piece choose the form which is given typographical prominence, or, if that does not apply, choose the briefest form (not an acronym or initialism) which adequately identifies the issuing body. e.g. Technical bulletin (Institute of Chartered Accountants in England) = ISSN 0143-9758
When more than one issuing body is named in the title source, choose as the name of the issuing body to be used as the qualifying term, the name which is typographically prominent, or if the names are given equal prominence, choose the name which appears first. Use the names of the other issuing bodies, as qualifying terms to construct variant titles.
e.g. Key title: Joint report (British Columbia Ministry of Forests/Canadian Forestry Service) = ISSN 0821-
8021 Variant title: Joint report (British Columbia Ministry of Lands, Parks and Housing/ Canadian Forestry Service)
4.1.2.5 Place and date of publication The place of publication is used as a qualifying term to distinguish the same title proper of two or more continuing resources published in different places. e.g. Family (Alton) = ISSN 0260-1516 Family (Boca Raton) = ISSN 0272-992X
Add the place of publication, i.e. the name of the city, town, etc., if necessary, qualified by the state or other appropriate geographical unit separated from each other by a comma. e.g. AnalgesiaFile (San Antonio, Texas) = ISSN 1057-2260
When the place by itself is insufficient, add the place and date of first publication separated from each other by a point. e.g. Family herald (Montreal. 1859) = ISSN 0842-0262 Family herald (Montreal. 1956) = ISSN 0842-0300 Architecture (Paris. 1979) = ISSN 0220-7591 Architecture (Paris. 1888) = ISSN 0766-6292
When an earlier title is resumed after a different title has intervened, add the date alone.
- - 63 - -
4.1.2.6 Language edition statement The language edition statement is generally used as a qualifying term to distinguish different language editions of a resource with the same title proper. When the edition statement does not appear on the title source, supply the qualifying term in the language of the content of the resource. The word “edition” and its equivalents in other languages is abbreviated according to the List of serial title word abbreviations. A multilingual list of language edition statements is given in the Annex 6. e.g. Agrindex (Ed. española) = ISSN 1010-3333 Agrindex (Ed. française) = ISSN 1010-3325 Agrindex (English ed.) = ISSN 1010-3317
4.1.2.7 Geographic edition statement The geographic edition statement is used as a qualifying term to distinguish different geographic editions of a resource with the same title proper. When the edition statement does not appear on the title source, supply the qualifying term in the language of the title source. The word edition and its equivalents in other languages is abbreviated according to the List of serial title word abbreviations. e.g. Le Cep (Ed. Montagne) = ISSN 1141-1686 Le Cep (Ed. Plaine) = ISSN 1141-1694 Alberta Catholic directory (Calgary ed.) = ISSN 0316-4756 Alberta Catholic directory (Edmonton ed.) = ISSN 0316-4748
4.1.2.8 Medium edition statement The medium edition statement is used as a qualifying term to distinguish different media editions of a resource with the same title proper. The word edition or its abbreviation ed. (or its equivalents in other languages) is not required in the qualifying term (if it is linguistically acceptable). A list of medium edition statements is given in the Annex 7. e.g. Ancient biomolecules (Online) = ISSN 1607-8411 Ancient biomolecules (Print) = ISSN 1358-6122 CMIbrief (Trykt utg.) = ISSN 0809-6732 CMIbrief (Online) = ISSN 0809-6740
- - 64 - -
4.1.2.9 Issuing body or publisher The name of the issuing body is used as the qualifying term when the title proper is generic or when none of the above information is appropriate. e.g. Trait d'union (Ministère de la culture et de l'environnement) = ISSN 0220-2980 Trait d'union (Mutuelle complémentaire des retraités de l’AP) = ISSN 0336-9188
Economic bulletin (Institute of Grocery Distribution. Research Services) = ISSN 0261-8648 Economic bulletin (Economic Committee, Communist Party of GB) = ISSN 0309-7854
The name of a commercial publisher can be used to qualify a key title when nothing else will serve to distinguish identical titles e.g Marine science (Plenum) = ISSN 0160-273X Marine science (Dekker) = ISSN 0362-1707 Note: Both serials have been published in New York since 1974.
4.1.2.10 Other bibliographic information When issuing body, publisher, edition, place and/or date of publication do not adequately distinguish otherwise identical key titles other information, such as frequency, type of publication, etc., may be added as a qualifying term in the language of the title source. e.g. McCall’s = ISSN 0024-8908 McCall’s (Pattern book) = ISSN 0198-2478 Poligrafičeskaâ promyšlennost' (Ekspress-informaciâ) = ISSN 0130-8238 Poligrafičeskaâ promyšlennost' (Obzornaâ informaciâ) = ISSN 0134-9147

5. TITLE PROPER
[MANDATORY]
The following rules for the title proper are established in accordance with the rules of ISBD. The title proper is the title of a continuing resource. Sources of information for the title proper are found in Section 1.6. In ISSN records, the title proper has a dual function: it is recorded as a specific data element in the appropriate field and it also forms the basis for the establishment of the key title (see Section 4). Examples of titles proper
Title proper of:
Le Monde a newspaper Cartactual a periodical Farm & home almanac a yearbook Wissenschaftliche Arbeiten aus dem Burgenland
a journal
Kulturwissenschaften a sub-series Amazon.com an integrating resource Patient teaching loose-leaf library an integrating resource A century of lawmaking for a new nation
an integrating resource
Webdo an integrating resource
5.1 The title proper can take various forms a) The title proper can consist solely of a generic term or terms.
e.g. Journal Textes et documents
b) The title proper can consist of the name of a person or corporate body when the title page bears no title other than that name.
e.g. Syndicat national des fabricants de bronzes, luminaires, vitrines et étalages, ferronnerie d’art et industries Annexes = ISSN 0222-1535 Fachhochschule Konstanz = ISSN 0343-6764 American Shakespeare Festival Theatre = ISSN 0090-2217
- - 69 - -
c) The title proper can consist of or include a set of initials, an acronym, or a logo prominently displayed on the title page.
e.g. IFLA journal = ISSN 0340-0352 Collection CAP = ISSN 0337-8063 ICSU review = ISSN 0536-1338 B.A.F.S. = ISSN 0726-5700
When the title appears in full and in the form of a set of initials or an acronym, the full form is chosen as the title proper and the initials or acronym is given as variant title (see Section 6).
d) The title proper can consist of or include numbers or letters (see Section 5.3.a)
e.g. 00 = ISSN 0917-7256 37 design & environment projects = ISSN 0953-3625 Contact II = ISSN 0197-6796
The expanded form may be given as a variant title (see Section 6).
e) The title proper can include a statement of responsibility, the name of a publisher, or details relating to other descriptive elements (e.g. edition statement) when such information is linguistically an integral part of the title.
e.g. Poultry Research Centre newsletter = ISSN 1207-8115 University of California publications in classical archaeology = ISSN 0896-8837 Willing’s press guide = ISSN 0000-0213 Rapport de gestion de la Banque nationale suisse = ISSN 1421-5500 British Pteridological Society bulletin = ISSN 0301-9195
f) The title proper can consist of a common title and a dependent title designation and/or a dependent title (i.e. a common title, a Section designation and/or a Section title, the title of the main continuing resource and the non-distinctive title of a supplement or inset; the title of the main series, a sub-series designation and/or the non-distinctive title of a sub-series, see Section 5.3.b).
e.g. IEE proceedings. A, Science, measurements and technology = ISSN 0960-7641 Acta Universitatis Carolinae. Philologica = ISSN 0567-8269 Botanica rhedonica. Série A = ISSN 0374-1885
- - 70 - -
5.2 Choice of title proper
5.2.1 Continuing resource with one title page a) When two or more variant titles in the same language and/or script appear on the title page, the title proper is selected by reference to the typography of the title page or the sequence of titles on the title page. b) When the titles are in different languages and/or scripts, the title proper is the title in the language and/or script of the content of the continuing resource. When this criterion cannot be applied, the title proper is selected by reference to the typography of, or the sequence of titles on, the title page. c) When the choice is between the full form of the title and the acronym or initial letters representing the full form, the full form is chosen as the title proper and the initials or acronym is given as variant title (see also Section 6).
e.g. Acquisition & development directory = ISSN 0897-5183 Editorial note: Title also appears as: ADD
Belgian journal of linguistics = ISSN 0774-5141 Editorial note: Title appears also as: BJL
5.2.2 Continuing resource with more than one title page a) When a continuing resource has more than one title page, as in the case of multi-language or multi-script continuing resources with a title page in each language or script, the title proper is selected from the title page that is in the language and/or script of the content of the main part of the continuing resource. b) When this criterion cannot be applied (e.g. because the content is presented equally in two or more languages or scripts), the title proper is selected from the right hand (recto) of two facing pages or from the first of two or more title pages on recto pages. c) In the case of tête-bêche continuing resources where text and title pages in two different languages and/or scripts are presented with equal status, the choice of title proper is at the discretion of the bibliographic agency. The title not chosen as title proper is given as a parallel title (see Section 6). Only one ISSN is assigned to a tête-bêche continuing resource. d) In the other cases (Insert/Inset), when the continuing resource being considered contains more than one continuing resource, each with its own title page and numbering, a separate ISSN assignment and record are made for each. Variant titles (other than parallel titles, see Section 5.4) not selected as title proper, whether appearing on the title page(s) or in other parts of the continuing resource, are given in the appropriate field (see Section 6).
- - 71 - -
5.3 Transcription of the title proper a) The title proper is transcribed from the title page exactly as to wording, but not necessarily as to capitalization or punctuation (see Sections 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5).
e.g. The unabashed librarian = ISSN 0049-514X Editorial note: Title appears as The U*N*A*B*A*S*H*E*D librarian
Obvious typographical errors are corrected when transcribing the title proper, and the title as it appears on the continuing resource is given as a variant title. In case of doubt whether the spelling of a word or words is correct, the spelling is transcribed as found.
e.g. Housing starts = ISSN 1524-2412 Editorial note: Title appears on v. 1, no. 1 as Housing sarts but Lakeland librarian Editorial note: Title appears as Lakeland lib*arian
If the title includes a date, name, number, etc., that varies from issue or part to issue or part, or from iteration to iteration, this date, name, number, etc. is omitted. This omission is indicated by marks of omission, except when it occurs at the beginning of the title.
e.g. Frommer’s Washington, D.C., on $ ... a day = ISSN 8755-5441 Editorial note: On the title page: Frommer’s Washington, D.C., on $35 a day
Tagungsbericht der Österreichischen Gesellschaft für Gefässchirurgie = ISSN 0300-0141 Editorial note: On the title page: 2. Tagungsbericht der Österreichischen Gesellschaft für Gefässchirurgie
Exceptionally, a very lengthy title proper may be abridged if this can be done without changing the meaning of the title, without loss of essential information, and without introducing incorrect grammar. If the title proper is abridged, the mark of omission is given. In abridging a title proper, never omit any of the first five words (the first six if the first word is an article). If the title proper includes any statement that mentions an earlier title, title absorbed, etc., that may or may not be grammatically linked to the rest of the title, such a statement is not transcribed as part of the title. The mark of omission is not given. Relationships with other continuing resources are given in the appropriate fields (see Section 15).
e.g. International gas report = ISSN 0266-9382 Not: International gas report, including World gas report Absorbed: World gas report
- - 72 - -
b) Common and dependent titles In the case of a continuing resource with a title proper consisting of a common title and a dependent title, the first element is the common title, which is followed by a dependent title designation, or a dependent title, or both. The dependent title is linked directly to its common title. e.g. Sections: Acta belgica. Medica physica = ISSN 0771-5684 Études commerciales. Série C = ISSN 0338-9030 Journal of polymer sciences. Part A, General papers = ISSN 0449-2951 Section with sub-Sections: Analele Universităţii Bucureşti. Seria ştiinţe sociale. Estetică = ISSN 1220-0220 Pubblicazioni dell’Università del Sacro Cuore. Contributi. Sociologia = ISSN 0540-0481
Pubblicazioni dell’Università del Sacro Cuore. Contributi. Scienze mediche = ISSN 1123-9611 Supplements: Dansk periodicafortegnelse. Supplement= ISSN 0084-9596 La lettre du maire. Textes et documents = ISSN 0183-6226 American journalof medical genetics. Supplement = ISSN 1040-3787
Sub-series Collection Actions sociales. Série ANAS = ISSN 1290-7499 Collection Points. Série Science = ISSN 0337-8160 Studia religiosa Helvetica. Series altera = ISSN 1424-7593
When describing a supplement or an insert/inset with a dependent title, the title of the main continuing resource is also given in the appropriate linking field. When describing a sub-series with a dependent title, the title of the main series is also given in the appropriate linking field. Dependent title(s) appearing in the continuing resource but not on the title page are given in square brackets.
- - 73 - -
c) Series designation Any numbers or other information relating to chronological series designation is not transcribed as a dependent title. e.g. On the title pages: Nuovo archivio veneto. Ser. 2 (1891-1900) Nuovo archivio veneto. Ser. 3 (1901- ) Title proper: Nuovo archivio veneto Key title: Nuovo archivio veneto = ISSN 0393-6694
5.4 Variations
Variations of the title proper occurring in the continuing resource being described are given as variant titles (see Section 6).
5.5 Initial articles in the title proper Initial articles are retained in the title proper, but ignored in filing except when they form part of a personal name or a geographic name. e.g Title proper with initial article ignored in filing Le Monde Title proper with initial article kept in filing Los Angeles bulletin

6. VARIANT TITLES
[MANDATORY, IF APPLICABLE]
This field is used to record titles other than the key title. Such titles include variant titles found on the resources themselves such as cover titles or parallel titles; minor title changes which have not resulted in the assignment of new ISSN and key titles; and expanded forms of the key title which are provided as alternate access points. Variant titles are transcribed from the resource while expanded forms are supplied by the cataloguer. Variant titles do not have to be made unique. This field is also used to record other title information (especially subtitles) if these titles are needed for the identification of a resource, and titles by which a resource is commonly known, even if that title does not appear on the resource. When an acronym, a number, a symbol, etc. is present in the key title, the cataloguer should construct a variant title which includes the expanded form of the acronym, number or symbol. Initial articles are retained but ignored in filing (except for those which are integral parts of personal or place names). They are not retained for the name of an issuing body used in a generic term construction unless it is required for linguistic reasons.

7. ABBREVIATED KEY TITLE
[MANDATORY FOR SCIENTIFIC RESOURCES]
The following rules are used to abbreviate key titles in languages using the Cyrillic, Greek and Latin alphabets. Key titles in languages using other alphabets are not abbreviated. In such cases, abbreviated key titles are not recorded. The rules below are based on the International standard ISO 4: Information and Documentation -- Rules for the abbreviation of title words and titles of publications. The ISSN International Centre, which is designated by ISO to serve as Registration Authority of ISO 4, is also responsible for the maintenance of the List of title word abbreviations. Titles of serials and other continuing resources.
7.1 Rules for the abbreviation of key titles See Section 7.2. An abbreviated key title is established by replacing each word of a key title by the corresponding abbreviation from the List of title word abbreviations. Titles of serials and other continuing resources and by omitting articles, prepositions and conjunctions. When an abbreviation for a particular word does not appear in the List, the instructions given in Section 7.2 are followed.
7.1.1 Key titles consisting of one word Do not abbreviate key titles which consist of one word. In such cases, the key title and the abbreviated key title are the same. When the key title consists of one word only, or one word with an initial article or preposition, the word is not abbreviated (see Section 7.1.7). e.g. Key title: Nefrologia Abbreviated key title: Nefrologia Key title: The Cosmopolitan Abbreviated key title: Cosmopolitan Key title: Sans frontière Abbreviated key title: Sans frontière
7.1.2 Key titles consisting of one word and qualifying information When a key title consists of a single word title and qualifying information, only the qualifying information is abbreviated. e.g. Key title: Forum (Düsseldorf) Abbreviated key title: Forum (Düsseld.) Key title: Annales (Université catholique de Louvain) Abbreviated key title: Annales (Univ. cathol. Louvain)
- - 81 - -
7.1.3 Key titles consisting of one word and terms such as "supplement", etc.
When a key title consists of a single word title which is followed by a term such as part, Section, series, supplement, etc. only such terms are abbreviated. e.g. Key title: Medicina. Suplemento (Buenos Aires) Abbreviated key title: Medicina, Supl. (B. Aires)
7.1.4 Word order In an abbreviated key title the word order follows that of the key title. e.g. Key title: Bulletin of proceedings taken in the Supreme Court of Canada Abbreviated key title: Bull. proc. taken Supreme Court Can.
7.1.5 Capitalization Capitalization of the abbreviated words follows the capitalization of the words in the key title. e.g. Key title: Archiv für deutsche Postgeschichte Abbreviated key title: Arch. dtsch. Postgesch.
7.1.6 Punctuation Keep all punctuation which occurs in a key title in its abbreviated key title, except commas and points. Omit commas and replace points by commas, except in the case of acronyms. All abbreviations, including contractions, should end in a point. e.g. Key title: Acta Universatis Carolinae. Iuridica Abbreviatd key title: Acta Univ. Carol., Iurid. Key title: E.S.A. bulletin Abbreviated key title: E.S.A. bull.
- - 82 - -
7.1.7 Articles, conjunctions and prepositions Omit articles, conjunctions and prepositions from abbreviated key titles except: a) prepositions at the beginning of a key title e.g. Key title : Pour une géographie littéraire de la France Abbreviated key title: Pour géogr. litt. Fr.
b) prepositions and articles which are integral parts of personal and place names e.g. Key title: Los Alamos science
Abbreviated key title: Los Alamos sci.
c) prepositions which are part of expressions such as in vivo, in vitro, etc. e.g. Key title: Journal of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer Abbreviated key title: J. in vitro fertil. embryo transf.
7.1.8 Acronyms and initialisms Do not abbreviate acronyms and initialisms. e.g. Key title: AEG ontladingen Abbreviated key title:AEG ontlad. Key title: Revue du CETHEDEC Abbreviated key title: Rev. CETHEDEC
7.1.9 Names of issuing bodies Abbreviate words in the names of issuing bodies in accordance with the rules in Section 7 Abbreviated Key Titles. e.g. Key title: Proceedings of the International Seed Testing Association Abbreviated key title: Proc. Int. Seed Test. Assoc.
Where national or International practice favours acronyms for the names of issuing bodies these may be used (see Section Acronyms and initialisms). e.g. Key title: The United Nations disarmament yearbook Abbreviated key title: U.N. disarm. yearb.
7.1.10 Special characters and symbols Keep special characters or symbols which appear in a key title unchanged in the abbreviated key title except the ampersand & and the + when they are used for the conjunction and.
- - 83 - -
e.g. Key title: Europe on $ ... a day Abbreviated key title: Eur. $ day Key title: 2000 A.D. annual Abbreviated key title: 2000 A.D. annu. Key title: Computer & control abstracts Abbreviated key title: Comput. control abstr. Key title: Metall-Reinigung + Vorbehandlung Abbreviated key title: Met.-Reinig. Vorbehandl.
7.1.11 Sections Retain words, numbers and letters which distinguish a Section of a continuing resource. The words in Section title should also be abbreviated. Abbreviations of generic words such as part, Section, series, etc. are omitted unless they are required for the purposes of identification. e.g. Key title: Annales scientifiques de l'Université de Besançon. Géologie Abbreviated key title: Ann. sci. Univ. Besançon, Géol. Key title: Canadian journal of research. Section A, Physical sciences Abbreviated key title: Can. j. res.,Sect. A Phys. sci.
7.1.12 Identical abbreviated key titles Distinguish abbreviated key titles by adding a qualifying term as instructed in 4.1.2.1, 4.1.2.3 to 4.1.2.10. Such a qualifying term is always abbreviated. e.g. Key titles: Expériences et innovations en éducation Experiencias e innovaciones en educación Experiments and innovations in education Abbreviated key titles: Expér. innov. éduc. (Ed. fr.) Exper. innov. educ. (Ed. esp.) Exper. innov. educ. (Engl. ed.)
7.1.13 Non-prescribed abbreviations present in the key titles When a key title contains an abbreviation which is different from the form prescribed in the List of title word abbreviations, Titles of serials and other continuing resources use the prescribed version in the abbreviated key title. e.g. Key title : An. Pedeca Abbreviated key title: Anu. Pedeca
- - 84 - -
7.2 Rules for word abbreviations See also “Rules for the abbreviation of key titles”. General procedure
Abbreviations which are permitted in abbreviated key titles are listed in the List of title word abbreviation. Titles of serials and other continuing resources available on the ISSN website. When a word is not in the list, and a new abbreviation is required, the ISSN National Centre communicates by e-mail, the following information to the International Centre:
ISSN, word, proposed abbreviation, language code
When a new abbreviation has been approved by the International Centre it is published in the List of title word abbreviations. Titles of serials and other continuing resources available at: http://www.issn.org/services/online-services/access-to-the-ltwa/
7.2.1 Recommended methods of abbreviation The recommended method for abbreviation is by truncation, that is at least two letters must be dropped from the end of the word, for example: e.g. literature abbreviated to lit.
Words which are commonly contracted may be abbreviated in that manner according to the nature of languages and the national practices. In particular the suppression of vowels is frequent, for example: e.g. Zeitung abbreviated to Ztg. könyvtár abbreviated to kvt. karangan abbreviated to krgn.
Abbreviation to a single letter is limited to very frequently-used generic words, for example: e.g. journal abbreviated to j. Zeitschrift abbreviated to Z.
Whether the method of abbreviation is truncation or contraction, or a combination of these methods, at least two letters shall be dropped from the word to be abbreviated.
A point should be used to indicate an abbreviation, and is required after all abbreviations.
- - 85 - -
7.2.2 Diacritics Do not omit diacritics from abbreviations. e.g. ábrázolás abbreviated to ábráz. médecine abbreviated to méd. Überwachung abbreviated to Überwach.
7.2.3 Artificial words Artificial words should be retained as they appear in the key title. However, new word coinages which are likely to become an accepted part of the language should be abbreviated. e.g. Diamat not abbreviated chemtech not abbreviated sharemarket not abbreviated narcoterrorist not abbreviated
7.2.4 Plural forms Use the same abbreviation for both the singular and plural forms of words when the spelling of the abbreviation is not affected by the change from singular to plural. e.g. library, libraries abbreviated to libr. Jahrbuch, Jahrbücher, abbreviated to Jahrb.
Use different abbreviated forms when the method of abbreviation is by contraction and the change from singular to plural affects the spelling of the abbreviation. e.g. country abbreviated to ctry. countries abbreviated to ctries. national abbreviated to natl. nationaux abbreviated to natx.
The plural form may be abbreviated even when the singular form is not provided that at least two letters are dropped from the original word to form the abbreviation. e.g. child not abbreviated children abbreviated to child.
- - 86 - -
7.2.5 Other inflected forms Use the same abbreviations for all inflected forms of a word. e.g. promyšlennost' promyšlennosti } all abbreviated to prom. promyšlennostej
7.2.6 Derivatives When orthographic changes in a derivative form change the part of the word used as the abbreviation, the original word and its derivative have different abbreviated forms. e.g. Scotland abbreviated to Scotl. Scottish abbreviated to Scott.
When orthographic changes do not affect the abbreviation for the derivative form, the abbreviation for the derivative and root forms should be the same. e.g. physics abbreviated to phys. physical abbreviated to phys. organization abbreviated to organ. organisé abbreviated to organ.
The derivative of a word may be abbreviated even when the root form is not abbreviated. e.g. Gefahr not abbreviated gefährlich abbreviated to gefährl.
A derivative of a word which has acquired a different meaning by the adjunction of a term having a specific abbreviation or a different morphological structure should have a different abbreviation. e.g. information abbreviated to inf. informatique abbreviated to inform. psychical abbreviated to psych. psychoeducation abbreviated to psychoeduc. psychology abbreviated to psychol.
- - 87 - -
7.2.7 Appended articles In languages where articles are appended to words, the same abbreviation shall be used for a word with an appended article or without one. e.g. relation } both abbreviated to relat. Relationerne
7.2.8 Grammatical prefixes In some languages, such as the Malay and Indonesian languages, the prefixes before the nouns or the verbs have grammatical functions. These grammatical prefixes should be suppressed or reduced in the abbreviations. e.g. diperluas abbreviated to prls. berwarna abbreviated to wrn. kemasyarakatan abbreviated to kmsyrk.
7.2.9 Semantically unrelated words Unrelated words shall have different abbreviations. e.g. ind. is correct for industrial, industrie, industry, etc; but is not correct for Indian, indication, induced, etc.
7.2.10 Compound words When a compound word consists of components each of which has an abbreviation in the “List of title word abbreviations. Titles of serials and other continuing resources”, abbreviate each component, and separate the abbreviations by a point without a space. However, points with the exception of the last one may be omitted if required by national practice. e.g. Forschungstechnologie abbreviated to Forsch.technol. informatiedossier abbreviated to inf.doss. gazdaságstatisztika abbreviated to gazdstat.
Keep hyphens which appear in compound words in the abbreviated forms. Separate each part of the abbreviation by a point and the hyphen, without spaces. e.g. médecin-radiologue abbreviated to méd.-radiol. technisch-industriell abbreviated to tech.-ind.
When a compound word consists of a word which has an abbreviation in the “List of title word abbreviations. Titles of serials and other continuing resources” and a component which has no abbreviation, only the relevant part of the word shall be abbreviated. When these components are separated by a hyphen, keep the hyphen in the abbreviation.
- - 88 - -
e.g. hydrogeology abbreviated to hydrogeol. cartography abbreviated to cartogr. bio-acoustics abbreviated to bio-acoust.
7.2.11 Names of persons The names of persons are not abbreviated. Adjectives formed from names of persons may be abbreviated.
e.g. Mozart not abbreviated mozartien abbreviated to mozart.
7.2.12 Place names The names of geographical locations i.e. town, state, province or country may be abbreviated. The names of towns should be abbreviated when they are important cities or frequently used in titles or when the names ended in suffixes like -burgh, -ton, -ville, etc.
e.g. New York abbreviated to N.Y. Southampton abbreviated to Southampt.
7.2.13 Substitution of characters Do not include characters in an abbreviation which are not present in the word being abbreviated.
e.g. premier correct abbreviation prem. incorrect abbreviation 1

8. PUBLICATION INFORMATION
[MANDATORY]
This field is used for recording information relating to the publication of a continuing resource: place of publication, name of the publisher, date(s) of publication. Information about providers is not transcribed in ISSN records. e.g.
a serial published by Routledge and available online through “Taylor and Francis online”. In this case, only Routledge is noted, as publisher, in the ISSN record.
8.1 Place of publication Record the name of the city or town of publication in the form given on the publication. When there is more than one place of publication given, record each one in separate subfields, in the order in which they appear. When there is more than one place of publication but only one publisher, repeat the subfield containing place names before entering the subfield recording the name of the publisher: e.g.
Place of publication: Paris
Name of publisher: C.N.R.S.
Places of publication: New York
London
Name of publisher: Pergamon Press
Places of publication: Oxford
London
Edingburgh
Melbourne Name of publisher: Blackwell Scientific Publications
The place of publication may be qualified by the name of the larger geographical unit which contains it to distinguish it from another place with the same name, e.g. Boston, Mass. If no place of publication is given, enter the abbreviation S.l. (sine loco = without place) in square brackets. Editorial note: National Centres using RDA supply a probable place of publication if possible. If it is not possible, they record « place of publication not identified » in the language of the National Centre. If the place of publication changes, relevant update information may be given.
- - 91 - -
8.2 Name of publisher
Give the name of the publisher in the shortest form in which it can be understood and identified internationally. When more than one publisher associated with only one place of publication are given, record each publisher in a separate subfield, in the order in which they appear. e.g.
Place of publication: Berkeley, Calif.
Name of publisher: University of California Press
Place of publication: Budapest
Names of publishers: Akadémiai Kiadó
Argumentum
When multiple publishers and places are given, record each publisher with its relevant place in the order in which they appear on the resource. e.g.
Place of publication: Budapest
Name of publisher: Akadémiai Kiadó
Place of publication: Dordrecht
Name of publisher: Kluwer Academic Publishers
If no publisher’s name is given, enter the abbreviation s.n. (sine nomine = without name) in square brackets. Editorial note: National Centres using RDA note instead « publisher not identified » in the language of the National Centre. If the publisher changes, relevant update information should be recorded by indicating the earliest available publisher, any intervening publisher and/or the current/latest publisher.
8.3 Date of publication
Record years of publication in the fields 260/264 $c (MARC 21) and 210 $d (UNIMARC) which differ from that which are given in the fields 008 (MARC 21) and 100 (UNIMARC). See Section 16.2 for more information about the dates recorded in 008.

17. CLASSIFICATION
[MANDATORY] Classification of the subject content of continuing resources may serve as subject access to individual records. Two classification schemes are permitted, the Universal Decimal Classification (UDC) and the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC). The International Centre uses UDC, but other Centres may choose to use either UDC or DDC, or both. So that subject content is adequately reflected Centres may assign more than one class number where appropriate.
17.1 UDC. Universal Decimal Classification
A National Centre may use either the edition chosen as common reference edition (which is the most recent abridged English edition) or the latest edition in its own language. Where this latter is used, the National Centre should check the class numbers against those in the common reference edition, and where numbers are different both should be entered. The + and / signs cannot be used.
17.1.1 Representation of the “UDC” in bibliographic formats
17.1.1.1 MARC 21: field 080
Use of one or other of the two classification fields (field 080 or 082) is mandatory for full records.

Its use is recommended when a resource is available as an application for smartphones or e-readers or when the different electronic versions of the same resource identified by a single ISSN are available through different systems (e.g., on a web server and as an application for Smartphone or e-reader, see 2.2.3). This note can be recorded in parallel with subfield $q of field 856. It can be preceded by the phrase: “Mode of access”. The note may be established in the language of the National Centre.

[MANDATORY WHEN AN ONLINE RESOURCE HAS MULTIPLE MANIFESTATIONS]
This note is highly recommended, in particular when the different electronic versions of the same resource (e.g., on a web server and as an application for a Smartphone or e-reader) are identified by a single ISSN. In this case, the ISSN record describes one of the online versions only but the corresponding ISSN is used as a shared identifier for all the related online versions. It is thus important to state clearly which version was used as a basis for the bibliographic description. The note may be recorded in the language of the National Centre.

23. ELECTRONIC LOCATION AND ACCESS
[MANDATORY, IF APPLICABLE]
Editorial note: The instructions below apply to both MARC 21 and UNIMARC formats. Record in this field the electronic location from which a continuing resource is available as well as the information needed to access it. The first indicator is for coding the access method (email, FTP, HTTP...), and the second indicator is for indicating that the electronic address is the address of the resource described in the bibliographic record or the address of a related resource (e.g., website of the publisher). In the record for print resources, fields 856 with the value “1” in the second indicator can be used to note the location of the corresponding online resource but this practice is not recommended. Only URLs with the second indicator “0” are mandatory in ISSN records. The type of electronic format can be noted in subfield $q of field 856, in particular when the resource is available in multiple electronic formats (e.g., EPUB and HTML).
*** When an URL changes, replace it by the new one in field 856. When a resource is no longer available online (“broken URL”) but is preserved through a preservation program and/or on the Internet Archive16: - retain the broken URL in the record and note “Resource no longer available online as of ...” in subfield $z of field 856 (the statement may be recorded in the language of the National Centre); - supply the URL leading to the copy of the resource in the preservation program or on the Internet Archive in an additional field 856 with 2nd indicator=1. When an URL is broken and the resource is not available on the Internet Archive or through a preservation program, retain the broken URL in the record and note “Resource no longer available online as of ...” in subfield $z of field 856. This may be recorded in the language of the National Centre.

24. ALTERNATE GRAPHIC REPRESENTATION
[OPTIONAL]
Records of continuing resources issued in non-roman scripts or alphabets are transliterated into the Roman alphabet by the National Centres before transmission to the International Centre (or before creation in the library management system of the ISSN International Centre) in accordance with appropriate ISO transliteration standards, or other standards accepted by the ISSN Network. When such transliteration is required, it is recommended to record additionally the key title, title proper, issuing
body and publishing information (name and location of the publisher) in original non-roman scripts.

Annex 9: Information sheet for ISSN re-assignment
ISSN REGISTER: ISSN RE-ASSIGNMENT Information note
ISSN National Centre Code: Date:
(Re-assigned ISSN) (ISSN to which the former (Former cancelled ISSN) cancelled one was related) ISSN &a ... ... ... ... _ ... ... ... ... ISSN &a ... ... ... ... _ ... ... ... ...
REASON FOR THE RE-ASSIGNMENT OF A CANCELLED ISSN
The ISSN was incorrectly cancelled
Ex.: - an ISSN was cancelled by mistake instead of another one, while cataloguing, transmitting, etc. - more than one language edition of a serial, each of them carrying a different ISSN were by mistake, at a given moment, considered as one and all ISSN but one were cancelled. Now, once aware of the error, and in order to re-establish a different ISSN for each edition, the cancelled ISSN are re-assigned to their corresponding edition
The ISSN was properly cancelled but printed or displayed on the serial:
The ISSN was both properly cancelled but, for whatever reason, printed on the serial. Now, to avoid difficulties with users, publishers, etc., it is re-assigned Very important: in this case, the re-assignment implies both the cancellation of the valid ISSN to which the cancelled one referred till now, and sending of the corresponding ISSN cancellation information note to I.C.
Other, which one?
INFORMATION ABOUT THE RE-ASSIGNMENT Is your Centre responsible for the re-assigned ISSN ? YES NO → if the answer is NO, was your Centre authorised, by the ISSN Navonal Centre responsible for the ISSN, for its re-assignment ? YES NO
